Gotta update it later. Replacing n900 with this beast. Well, this is a no brainer IMHO
The timing can't get more suitable, as my geeked out N810 with Maemo 4 really show its age now.
Have to start saving money. Now now, how do I sell my kidney?

The moment N9 rumored to be full touchscreen, I went to target android slider - Xperia Pro

But now confirmed N9 is slider...I might reconsider N9 as option again.

Don't expect the same kind of community support as N900/Maemo 5 with N9/N950/Maemo6 (whatever Nokia calls it)
Nokia already messed up with Maemo big time.Most of the current power users rather prefer to enhance Maemo 5 than move to N9.

You guys can pretty much write off Nokia's support for this phone.

Good haha cant wait to review it to compare with the N900.

So confirm it running meego?

No idea.We'll only when it's officially announced.

Really awesome!can't wait this baby to lay in my hand!

update,confirmed its running meego.

Confirmed Meego since this morning! N9! Awesome!! 12mpx! Awesome!! But when is it releasing? Meego still beta now. Argh!! One reason I would go for this instead of Samsung Galaxy S2 is the 12mpx!! Another for it having a Qwerty Keypad!! It's the perfect combo! ARGH!!!!!! Nokia, can you kick Elop away so Meego gets full development!

Well, as one of the N810 user, I beg to differ there. I believe this is very much similar to the N8x0 and N900 situation 2 years ago.

I still remember when N900 was released. Most of the users didn't want to upgrade from the N8x0 series due to some possible "downgrades" such as smaller screen, and the hardware itself is not that much of an upgrade (Although I still lol when someone compared the older ARM11 CPU on N8x0 to be only 200mhz slower than the CPU used in N900 and arguing that its not much of a change ). And also Nokia's silliness not to properly support the N8x0 series really anger many people, till they practically written off anything from Nokia in the future.

Yes, there are some effort to enhance N8x0 series such as the Mer project and Meego adaptation for N8x0 series to revitalise the line up but all just being left out and abandoned. (Really hoped the current CSSU and Diablo Turbo project continues on tho!)

But as times goes on, more and more people adapt N900 as their primary device, and lo and behold, the Maemo 5 took off and become one of the geek playground. And also practically EOL'd the N8x0 series. Sigh

Surely this time its going to be much different. The "awesome" N900 support by Nokia that leave a sour taste in every user mouth, the Elopocalypse and Meego being left in the backburner really makes N9 much harder to be appealing to the community. But I believe that over time, the hardware upgrades on the N9 (Capacitive screen, improved CPU+ RAM+ GPU, 12MPX Camera), alongside with the enhancement on the Meego Harmattan will make it more appealing, and perhaps that will drive the adoption rate of it.

Just like 2 years ago, when N900 launches

p/s: And also, as a current N810 user, I have to agree on the awful support by Nokia. We didn't have any app to use our webcam for! And don't get me started on the stunted A2DP support on it, it just like rubbing salt onto open wound

Previously maemo4 and 5 and now meego.for how many years they doing experiment?harmattan still experimental device?I don't get it.with the really stunning hardware,why don't just focus on meego for the software development and attract more developer onto this platform?come on nokia.

Surely got support from community. People just can't get enough from N900. It's aging. But if we're getting support from Nokia with major apps devs support, it would be even better cause whatever it is, having a lack of apps fully utilizing the hardware is a pain in the ass.
What's the rumored hardware by the way. Some rumored hardware are :
BCM2763 1080i Multimedia Processor

Processor : 1GHz TI OMAP3 / Intel’s Atom 1.2Ghz / ST Ericsson ARM Cortex A9, Dual Core 1.2GHz with MALI400

*Qt was also demonstrated at MeeGo conference on TI OMAP 4.

What hardware are we expecting?

Mr elop.

No definite proof that it's running Meego/Maemo 6

Time will tell how things goes...

Meego facebook page confirms it.

Added on May 20, 2011, 8:50 pmBam, and now we've got some crazy speculation of it having a 1280x720 resolution 4" screen. Now, who none other than Toshiba has that screen?

367PPI
Oh, ST-Ericsson U8500 going to be used for Nokia's WP7 devices. We might as well hope it coming to N9.

Dun think too much and I think hd resolution is not practical somemore graphic card will struggle due to the high resolution.

Reading the threads on TMO, my preferred keyboarded variant of N9 will be equipped with only an OMAP3 processor
Still, want to have one. The hardware is already smoking hot!

If ST-U8500 is Mali 400 wor

There's lots of speculation. Everyone say different thing. Wait for Meego event.
